Announcement *Group gates*

[StormWind]

Dear players,

There has been a lot of fuss around this issue and the Staff team would like to make an official announcement.

We have received numerous complaints that a certain group is abusing the base: the group's players are getting wanted within the base and wait for the LEOs to come while having the gate closed.

After a long debate within the Staff team, we have an answer. The rules state that it is forbidden to enter a base and close the gate to escape the LEOs (base abuse). Some might say that what the respective group is doing is a loophole and is a base abuse as well.

The Staff team's answer is:

You are allowed to be wanted within the base, while having the gate closed if:

1. There is a way for LEOs to enter the base (by air, by water)
2. If the wanted players respect the following rules:
   • "You are not allowed to constantly refill armor from weapon checkpoints if players are trying to kill you."
   • "Entering an interior while getting chased is allowed, except if you’re entering fight club and the player chasing you is a law enforcement agent, or if you're entering a group building that regular players won't have access to."

Although, we would like to see your suggestions on this matter.
1. Do you believe this is fair for the criminals?
2. Do you believe LEOs should be able to open the gates?
3. Should the gate be open when LEOs are around (if the group's players are wanted)?

We are able to make modifications to this issue and scripting is possible. As of now, a lot of group "things" are being added into the database, making it more dynamic.

Yours,
The Staff Team

I truely wonder what this 'certain group' is.

I'd like to add that if anyone ever busts an LSPD United member abusing our base, you're more then welcome to report him!

I mean this sounds good but the rules were clear from the get-go lol

It wouldn't really add up if I could just run into an area that I have control of doors and ways to enter and such and just leave the cop there haha

Anyways, lets see what others think of this as well

This will not fix the issue of people raging "Base abuse", as the issue actually is that they camp in their base, the spawn, get wanted right after spawn, so they are like infinite. A group gets wanted, one of them dies, spawns again, refill (weapons and drugs), then /rape. The issue only isn't about we cannot get in a specific base, there's a way to enter in almost ALL the bases (by air mostly).

Maybe we have a system that only SWAT & Army can destroy any group's gate for like 5-10 minutes or as long as the group players stay wanted inside base? Just same as the Bank's vault door. I don't know if this is even possible but it'll work.

i'm totally fine with that, idk who the admin was who said such bullshit ingame, but this here sounds way better.

Although, we would like to see your suggestions on this matter.
1. Do you believe this is fair for the criminals?
2. Do you believe LEOs should be able to open the gates?
3. Should the gate be open when LEOs are around (if the group's players are wanted)?

1)
yes, definitely. the criminals can respawn there all the time, thats there advantage.
+ they can't refill it nonstop, but for this case exists already the checkpoint abuse rule.
2) no, as long as they can get from air/roof, why should they. criminals should have at least a little room to work with, its already hard when the army comes with 5-10 people and rape their base with hunters lol
3) no, it should only be opened when u're outside of the base and u're getting chased. if there is no one around, you can close it. sounds fair imo

I agree

1. Do you believe this is fair for the criminals?
What?!
2. Do you believe LEOs should be able to open the gates?
No, i don't think they should be able to open gates.
3. Should the gate be open when LEOs are around (if the group's players are wanted)?
There are two cases here;
1-If the players are getting wanted while they are already inside the base and in this case i think the gate can be closed because they didn't even abused it! (Like if a non-group member gets wanted in a base)
2-If the players are getting wanted outside the base and then they go inside & closing the gate behind them to prevent cops from entering, that won't be fair for cops at all(so disallowed it).
